The only way to guarantee failure is to never try at all.

Think about that saying today, and see what it means to you. See where and what you find yourself doing once you fully believe it. Once it's embedded in your mind, you can't fail unless you quit. Stay close to the line, Nourish it.

When it all comes down to it, you can only blame the one you see in the mirror. We can't control others actions, but we can certainty control our own. To better ourselves daily to become who we want to see in that mirror. If the mirror is broken, repair it. If the mirror is foggy polish it. Clean it. For it is you.

know your body

Guys that haven't trained natural for long enough usually are not in tune with there bodies enough to get the full effect of cycles (supplements). These are usually the guys that say, I am not sure if its working, or confuse muscle soreness for pain or injury. If you have been training for years natural you basically know your recovery time and you can tell changes in your body that happen like bloat, recovery and intensity that occur just from a bad meal. Being in tune with your body on a natural level will let you get so much more out of using any drug or even dietary supplements.

After having a bad weekend of to much food and drink and too little sleep I can notice my training suffer for days while my body recovers. On the same note I know exactly what to do when trying to recover after said mistake. That took years of fiddling with my body, what I eat and how I train. When people ask you how you look like that and what did you do, you simply say good diet, work out, get sleep rinse and repeat for 6-10 years. That usually throws them off.

Do you do your cardio before or after your workout? Studies have shown that doing cardio after your workout will promote more human growth hormone and allow you to build more muscle than doing it before your workout. Not to mention you get a better lift since you have more energy and aren't as tired. DUH right? well people tend to do their workout earlier. Though it's good to get a nice run in early before your day starts. It is more beneficial to your body to get it done later after you do your workout. 

Doing (HIT) high intensity training your body also will see much better results such as more fat burning, more calories being burned, and more muscle mass being created. If you do long distance jogs you will not burn as much because your body will get used to the training and develop a tolerance overtime so it will take longer to burn fat and calories. Do what works best for you and what you feel, but personally I have seen much better results from sticking to these simple rules, but everybody s body is different.
